Susie, I just wanted you to know that your package arrived on Saturday. I can’t tell you enough how delighted I was to find out I was one of your winners!
Thank you for putting together our prize package and for shipping it to us. My husband announced the package’s arrival by shouting, “What the h**l did you buy from Bangalore, India?” “I didn’t buy anything! What are you talking about?” “I’m talking about the package from India that I just signed for!” It was a pretty comical exchange.
I haven’t given the goodies to my girls yet. We will be moving in about a month, and I’m saving them to give to the girls then as an extra special surprise.
For those who don’t believe you’re frugal, I note that the shipping box was a used cereal box basically turned inside out. If it could make it from India to Pennsylvania, I would hope such a box would survive shipping within the United States!
Take care, Susie, and again, thank you for your generosity!–Caroline
Love your husband’s response! haha. Let me know how your girls like it.
I actually use cereal boxes because I haven’t been able to find shipping boxes. I’ve found envelopes and bubble mailers, but no boxes. A cereal box is usually just the right size!
Enjoy!
